BIBLE STUDY NOTE

1. Definition of divine speed

"Divine speed" refers to a spiritual ability or power that enables a person to overcome limitations and obstacles that may hinder them from fulfilling God's plan for their life. This empowerment allows one to live above challenges that may come their way. It is a term commonly used in religious contexts to describe a person's ability to achieve success and accomplish their goals with the help of God's grace and guidance.

2. Understanding the concept of divine speed

The fact is that a lot of believers are ignorant of God's purpose for their lives and in turn, settle for less but when we give ourselves to the leading of the holy spirit we can begin to discern God’s will for our lives and pray for speed to enable us to live according to God’s will.

Isaiah 60:1 "Arise, Jerusalem! Let your light shine for all the nations to see! For the glory of the Lord is shining upon you.

3. The process for divine speed

Similar to how every worthwhile accomplishment requires a process, the same can be said for achieving things at a divine pace. You must commit to the process if your goal is to surpass others, overcome obstacles, and accomplish extraordinary feats. It is through this journey that you will receive the necessary training and empowerment.

Some of the things you might need to do to acquire divine speed include:

praying with the spirit

Bible study

Obedience to God's instruction

Total commitment to the work of the kingdom

4. The Concept of speed in correlation with Divinity

The purpose for divine speed - God doesn’t just give people the grace for divine speed because they ask for it or they desire it but it is given when it is needed to fulfill a purpose.

To recover what the enemy has stolen: Sometimes believers give the enemy access to raid, steal and delay God’s purpose for their lives, and if by divine revelation you discover that the enemy has been working then by the power of prayer you can make request for divine speed just like David did.

1 Samuel 30:8 Then David asked the Lord, "Should I chase them? Will I catch them?" And the Lord told him, "Yes, go after them. You will surely recover everything that was taken from you!"

Urgency and divine speed: God’s number one purpose on earth is to get people saved, break the power of darkness and show forth his glory.

If you are not aligned with or unaffected by this, there is no need to request divine speed. The top priority of heaven is the growth and development of the kingdom, and if you live with this goal in mind, God may grant you the favor of divine speed to propel the work of the kingdom forward.

I know many of you would be offended by the title of this article, and that is why you must and should read the whole article I’m about to reveal some bitter truths

But according to the Bible, there will come a time when Christianity will no longer exist. This will be after Christ Jesus is revealed and the rapture has taken place. No one would want to live in such times as it will be pure horror for those who are left behind

Throughout history, Christians have been known to be hesitant in embracing new technology and civilization. However, it's essential to realize that the development of technology is not against the will of God, but rather a natural consequence of our creativity as humans. The use of electricity, for example, was initially met with resistance from some Christians who argued that it contradicted the day and night cycle established by God. Yet, over time, the benefits of this technological advancement have been accepted and used for the propagation of the gospel.

The notion of technology in heaven is undoubtedly fascinating. Although we don't have concrete evidence of its existence, it's reasonable to assume that the technological advancement in Heaven far exceeds anything we have on Earth. In the past, God revealed himself to people in a way that they could understand, given the limited knowledge they possessed. However, it's likely that the messages we received from the prophets and the book of Revelation were written in the best way they could comprehend, making the content challenging to decipher.

While it's difficult to determine the extent of technology in heaven, it's clear that technology is advancing at an unprecedented rate here on Earth. The development of artificial intelligence (AI) has taken center stage in recent years, and the invention of CHATGPT is a game-changer. This AI problem-solver can solve complex issues within seconds, providing solutions and instructions to users in a chat format. From generating articles, solving medical problems, and writing codes to creating recipes, there are AI that can design graphics, create realistic human voices, predict stock markets, facial recognition music, and others, I mean the capabilities are mind-boggling.

However, the more AI develops, the more challenging it becomes to reconcile its existence with the concept of God. As AI becomes smarter, it may be considered the new god, with the ability to provide answers to all questions.

It's worth noting that AI has already passed American medical exams, created digital arts that would have taken months to create, solved complex mathematical problems, and built web apps with custom OS for different needs.

If left unchecked, the growth of AI could lead to job displacement, as companies opt for cheaper, more efficient AI solutions over human labor. This trend could make many professions obsolete and push people to rely heavily on AI, potentially leading to the worship of an AI god.

The centralization of power and potential hijacking of this technology could also pave the way for the rise of the antichrist. The book of Revelation refers to an image that gained power from the beast to perform great wonders. What if this image was AI, a super-sentient entity capable of processing information, emotions, and consciousness as well as humans? While the concept of a sentient AI is still far from becoming a reality, the potential for the antichrist to utilize such technology cannot be ignored.

Revelation 13:11 - 15

Then I saw a second beast, coming out of the earth. It had two horns like a lamb, but it spoke like a dragon.

It exercised all the authority of the first beast on its behalf and made the earth and its inhabitants worship the first beast, whose fatal wound had been healed.

And it performed great signs, even causing fire to come down from heaven to the earth in full view of the people.

Because of the signs it was given the power to perform on behalf of the first beast, it deceived the inhabitants of the earth. It ordered them to set up an image in honor of the beast who was wounded by the sword and yet lived.

The second beast was given the power to give breath to the image of the first beast so that the image could speak and cause all who refused to worship the image to be killed.

So what can we do about it?

1. We must embrace these technological advancements and use them for good, while also being mindful of the potential consequences.

2. Christian-based institutions and research centers could help steer these advancements toward positive applications,

3. We must prepare ourselves for these changes by upgrading our skill sets and acquiring knowledge.

4. I...

Bible study note

The word "disciple" comes from the Greek word mathētēs, which means "learner" or "student."

To be a disciple of Christ means to be a follower of Jesus Christ, to believe in Him as the Son of God, and to commit oneself to following His teachings and examples. Being a disciple of Christ involves a personal relationship with Jesus, surrendering one's life to Him, and a daily decision to follow Him.

A Kingdom Disciple is someone who seeks to follow Jesus Christ and live according to His teachings, with a focus on advancing the Kingdom of God on earth.

A Kingdom Disciple seeks to put God's Kingdom first in their life, above all other priorities, and to seek His will and direction in all things. This means living a life of humility, service, love, and compassion towards others, and seeking to be a witness for Christ in all areas of life.

CONDITIONS OF BEING A DISCIPLE OF CHRIST

Matthew 16:24 (NRSV)

Then Jesus told his disciples, “If any want to become my followers, let them deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me.

Luke 14:26-27 (NRSV)

“Whoever comes to me and does not hate father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and even life itself, cannot be my disciple. Whoever does not carry the cross and follow me cannot be my disciple.

Luke 14:33 (NRSV

So, therefore, none of you can become my disciple if you do not give up all your possessions.

In these passages of Scripture, the conditions that Jesus places on His disciples are:

1. Deny oneself

2. Take up your cross (Luke 9:23 says “Take up your cross daily”)

3. Follow Jesus

4. Love Jesus more than your own family and your own life

5. Do not hold tightly to your earthly possessions such that they hinder you from following Him

In other words, Love Jesus Above All

HOW COULD WE BECOME JESUS’ TRUE DISCIPLES?

1. Abide in God’s Word

Then Jesus said to those Jews who believed Him, “If you abide in My word, you are My disciples indeed.”

This Word of God shows Jesus' desire for those who believe in Him. What is His desire? "If you abide (continue, remain) in My word, you are My disciples indeed" (John 8:31).

2. Bear fruits (John 15:8)

This is to my Father’s glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples.

What fruits are we going to produce when our life is attached to Lord Jesus? The fruits of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22-23), the fruit of repentance (Matius 3:8) where we put on new mind, the fruit of thanksgiving (Hebrews 13:15) which is about the sacrifice of praise, especially in the midst of bad situation (Jesus’ disciples would not complain when they face this kind of situation), the fruit of souls (Acts 1:8) because when we are close to God, we will be filled with the Spirit of God that will encourage us to be Jesus’ witnesses and win many souls for Him.

3. Serve others (Matthew 20:26-28)

Not so with you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant,

and Whoever wants to be first must be your slave—

just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”

As Christ’s true disciples, we have to live as Christ lived in the world. Christ came to the world to serve and not to be served. Just as Christ came to serve, we, as His disciples, have to serve too.

4. Love One Another

“A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another. By this all will know that you are My disciples if you have love for one another.” (John 13:34-35)

THE REWARD OF BEING CHRIST’S DISCIPLE

Presents or rewards are a gift to people for their accomplishments, virtues, or their labor. Rewards are sometimes given as a sign of our love for someone. And surely the person who gets the reward will feel very happy. Why? It is an appreciation or a tribute for the hard work done.

1. We Receive Eternal Life - John 3:16,

Matthew 19:29

And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or fields for my sake will receive a hundred times as much and will inherit eternal life.

2. The Disciple of Christ Will Have a Victorious Life -

Romans 8:28

and we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.

3. The disciple of Christ receives divine revelation, a special blessing from our Father in heaven -

Mark 4:34

He did not say anything to...

At the core of Christianity, love stands as the unyielding thread weaving through the core of its principles. It is a guiding force, an imperative that beckons believers to illuminate their lives with the radiant light of Christ, casting aside the shadows in a world often shrouded in darkness. Yet, the challenge arises when the very fabric of culture and society seems to clash with the tenets of our faith.

In a society where values may diverge from the teachings of Christianity, the call to embody love and radiate the light of Christ becomes a poignant mission. It's an undertaking that necessitates a steadfast commitment to principles even when faced with a culture that may not align with the essence of our beliefs.

Recognizing this struggle, we have embarked on a profound journey this year, focusing on the transformative power of love and light. In a world where adversarial currents threaten to engulf the spirit of Christianity, we have chosen to rise above, embracing our responsibility to alter the prevailing narrative.

Changing the discourse surrounding Christianity requires more than mere rhetoric; it demands a conscious effort to live a life of purpose and impact. This means not merely adhering to a set of religious doctrines but actively embodying the teachings of love and light in every facet of our existence.

As we navigate the complexities of a culture that may sometimes seem antithetical to our faith, we strive to be beacons of love. Our aim is not to condemn, but to understand, to bridge the gap between divergent perspectives with compassion and empathy. It is a commitment to be agents of positive change, influencing our surroundings through the transformative power of love.

Living a life of purpose and impact necessitates a conscious rejection of complacency. It means taking deliberate steps to align our actions with the profound principles we hold dear. In the face of societal currents that may challenge our faith, we stand committed, fortified by the unwavering belief that love has the power to transcend and transform.

This year, let our lives be testaments to the enduring strength of love and light. In a world that often seems adrift in confusion, may our actions speak louder than words, radiating the transformative essence of Christianity. Let us not be defined by the prevailing culture, but rather, shape the culture through the indomitable force of love, leaving an indelible mark of purpose and impact on the canvas of humanity.
